NEWS 3 Japanese company donates college's largest endowment In an effort to help create international understanding in the North County Community, a Japanese firm, last week announced the creation of a $500,000endowment toCal State San Marcos, to establish an annual international festival. The endowment is the largest gift to CSUSM to date. At an evening reception held Sept. 25 and attended by 500 area business and community leaders, Yoshihiko Kawamura, president of Itoman & Company, Ltd., presented a check for $50,000 to CSUSM's President Bill Stacy, representing the first annual increment to fund the Itoman International Festival at CSUSM. The yearly international festival will promotepublic understanding of Japanese and other nations' business and culture.

Craven Hall bids under budget $ 14 million offer s ets s tandards L ARRY BOISJOLIE/PIONEER With an offer that was $ 1.4 million under budget, Cal State San Marcos last week closed bidding to contractors for Craven Hall, the first "feature" building to be constructed at the permanent campus. Bidding for contractors closed at 2 p.m. last Tuesday, with all 11 contractors bidding below the $ 15.8 million budgeted for the building. "This is something I have never heard of before," said Albert Amado, assistant vice president of Physical Planning and Campus Construction. The apparent low bidder for the project was Bodell Construction, of Architect's rendering of Craven Hall. Salt Lake City, Utah. Bodell placed a bid of $14,325,000, less than 1 per- $15,597,000.

Students who had been previously afflicted with the diseases need not provide proof of immunization, but must produce documentation of having had theailments. The documentation must be from a licensed physician. "A lot of students c an't find rec- ords, however, it is safe to reimmunize," says Dr. Joel Grinold, chief physician of S tudent Health Services. According to Grinold, many students, that think they have previously had the diseases, may be mistaken. He says there are a number of viruses that cause rash illnesses similar to mumps, measles and rubella. "Measles in adults is a much more serious illness than in children," Grinold says. Grinold says that adults may experience ear problems, pneumonia and encephalitis as well as rash and fever as a result of the diseases. In addition, pregnant women may experience complications, and mumps is aknown cause of sterility in adult males. To illustrate the importance of immunization, Grinold gives the example of University of Southern California quarterback, Rodney Peefe. Two years ago Peete came down with a case of the measles toward the end of the football season. When USC went to the Rose Bowl, nearly half the team was afflicted with the disease. According to Grinold, many people born between ' 57 and ' 68 may not have received their vaccinations correctly. ' The practice years back was to give the vaccination at 12 months. At that age there is a great possibility that the vaccine won't take,"Grinold says. Even though the vaccine is better now than in previous years, Grinold says there is still a 5 percent chance the vaccine will b e ineffective. Grinold claims that the vaccine is notamedium for AIDS transmission^ so students do not need to fear immunization. "The vaccine is not made from blood products, so there is no risk of AIDS. Student Health Services also uses sterile technique (when admini- stering the shots)," Grinold says. The vaccine is administered free of charge in Student Health Services. Appointments are necessary for students wishing to be immunized. The California State University system requires that all students produce documentation of immunization after one semester of classes. Students can waiver the requirement if it conflicts with religious or personal beliefs. However, if a student does waiver the immunization and an outbreak SEE S HOTS/PAHF r BIDS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3 will then be sent t o the Chancellor's Office of the California State University system for approval. If the bid is not approved, it will be offered to the s econd l owest b idder,Taylor Woodrow Construction. Amado said he thinks the low bidding will continue through more projects. "There is no questions that bids will come in lower," he said. "(The building industry) has slowed down, there's not as many projects to bid f or." Amado said the construction industry is now experiencing a "low spot" in business that may last up to three years. He said the competitive nature of the market contributed to the low bids. "A $15 million project can really help a contractor make it through the rough spots," said Amado. In the meantime, Amado said he thinks the beiow-budget Craven Hall bids will be reflective of the tone of future projects. "The budget was put together five years ago," said Amado. " It was anybody's guess where the industry or economy would go." Due to a recession in the building industry, a record number of plans were issued to contractors and subcontractors. According to Amado, 280 sets of the plans, at $300 per set, were distributed. The money is refundable upon return of the drawings. Officials in the Cal State Chancellor's Office said the number of plans sold represents the largest number of plans issued for a Cal State campus. H ie 146,000 square-foot building will be thefirstfeature building on the new campus. The lower two floors of the six-story building will be garnished with imported marble. It will serve as a temporary library, holding over 100,000volumes, and will house administration and Student Services Hpon the campus's opening in 1992. Dean of Student Services Ernest Zomalt talks with students after one of last Thursday's student organizational forums. The purpose of the meetings was to discuss methods of operating student-run organizations. Student forums proceed despite low turnout Despite lower than expected turnout at the student organization open forums held last week, college officials have begun the process of organizing student representation on the Cal State San Marcos campus. The purpose of the two forums held last Thursday was to begin the process of organizing studentrun committees to form student organizations such as a government and a newspaper. Dean of Student Services, Ernest Zomalt, said the turnout at the forums was ' lower than expected/' Even with the low turnout, Zomalt said the forums will continue to be held on a weekly basis. "The purpose (of the forums) is to share general frameworks for starting student organizations," said Zomalt "We want to present to the president a proposal for the establishment of student government, a newspaper, a yearbook, institutionally related activities and a task force to provide a draft of the student handbook and policies/* he said. At the noon forum, Zomalt said he hopes student governmental elections could take place early next spring. He said he would like to see the students at CSUSM form a system of government that is uniquely their own. "There are certain guideline areas that must be followed," said Zomalt, "but the underpinnings that go into it are to be evolved and shared with students." Z omaltsaidtheformof student organizations can move in almost any direction as long as the guidelines f or the organizations are concurrent with Cal State University disciplines. Zomalt suggested that in o nto to write guidelines and policies, student committees should become familiar with restrictions placed forth in Title 5 , a code outlining policies of sharedgovernance in the educational system. "The slate i sn't absolutely clear (on formulas for student organizations), but some of the dots are already connected," said Zomalt. Last month, CSUSM President Bill Stacy appointed Zomalt to chair a task force to develop plans and review options of student organizations f or the fall term, Therese Baker, head of the Academic Senate, was also appointed to the task force by Stacy. In addition to Zomalt, two faculty members of the primary task force committee. Kenneth Mendoza, the chair of the Academic Senate's committee on student affairs, and Pat Farris, director of Business services, were appointed to serve on the committee. At the meeting, more forums, to be held on a regular basis, were scheduled. Zomait and the students present at the forums agreed that Tuesdaysat 12:30p.m. would be the most convenient time to hold the forums. All forums will take place in the Multipurpose Room* Building 145, Room 9. At today *s forum, Zomalt said that he hopes to form committees and subcommittees. These groups will be open to all students with meetings to be held at times other than the scheduled forum times.. These committees will make suggestions to the president through the academic senate on how to run studentorganizations, Zomalt said. �TUESDAY, OCTOBER 2 , 1 990/PIQNEER Library computer program aids with career guidance Developed by a team of researchers 'and specialists at Educational Testing Service, SIGI PLUS (System oflnteractiveGuidanceandlnformation PLUS) combines the unique capabilities of the computer with thoroughly researched data bases of occupations, skill, interests, values and educational programs.

A T HOUGHTS "Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened." SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL Incumbents unmoved by compromise Congressional negotiators, our servants, are going on their fifth month of summits aimed at balancing the budget. The formula is simple enough: do more with less. Compounding the synergy is a list of special interests-many without public s pirit-too numerous to list.

Rhetorically the landscape has changed little in sixty years: the Democrats insist we stand by liberal models (affirmative action, project housing, and welfare) that have proven to be any- ' thing but solutions for poverty and racial inequality. Likewise, the Republicans' myopic insis- Additionally, some programs, such as national defense, benefit from economics of scale, and could not be managed otherwise. On the other hand, the private sector is unprguably the best conduit of earned wealth and societal advancement, and thereby serves the most when it is permitted to prosper.

Age need not be a barrier. The older student population of CSUSM has the wisdom of experience to contribute to the infant campus. Who is better suited for forming a new system of government than those who have seen the faults of the old ones? The biggest fear is that the vim and vigor that seems so externally prevalent at CSUSM will be lost with internalized apathy. This kind apathy, for instance was seen last spring when Stanford University elected Bart Simpson for student body president and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for its senate. Wanting to make an impression at CSUSM that will last forever is fine in theory, but actually venturing out and taking advantage of the opportunities that are available is the only way to cross the river of challenges to a lasting future. . . . ; . . .. . �8 EXPLORI m j f H fjSffi&t f H H B _ p i o n e e r / t u e s d a y , o c t o b e r 2,1900 Tourists traps abundant on tiny island.

Actually, what visitors see mostly is the abundance of kelp growing from the sea's floor. All sea life is virtually obscured by the waving kelp. The boat is the largest glassbottomed boat in the world, which is probably the most interesting aspect of this tour. On land, tours of the city of Avalon are available.

The wildlife is diverse. The island is home to 12 North American Bald Eagles and some 400 North American Bison. The bison were brought to the island in 1924 to be used in the movie 'Vanishing America.' The studio producing the picture brought 14 of the bison to the island and left them there after filming was complete. The small population of bison adapted to the island and grew to the size it is today. Reportedly, the bison can weight up to 2,000 pounds and still run as fast as a race horse. If you ride the Sea J et's line to the island from San Diego and take the tours, you are left with just over an hour to explore Avalon Bay. Away from the B ay's shops and the tourists, Avalon's side streets and quaint neighborhoods are the charm of city. Yet, even this quaint atmosphere is disrupted by the electric carts that tourists have rented and residents use to get around the bay. Overall, Catalina has much to offer the daytime tourist, but plan on spending a weekend on the island if you wish to experience its charms to the fullest.

The opinion changes season to season. Once autumn rolls around, the 2,500 year-round residents enjoy a respite from the summertime crowds, which average 10,000 to 20,000 people per day. Michael Haphe, 23, an islander for most of his life, doesn't mind when the fall season rolls around. For him i t's a chance to catch up with life. "From an islander's point of view, i t's crowded (during the summer)," Haphe says. The tanned lifeguard reflects on his l ife as an islander. " You're used to such a slow pace nine months o ut of the year." But the young Catalina native also admits, " it's f un (in the summer). You meet lots of people and do a lot of f un things." Haphe lived most of his youth on the island, attending school in Avalon until the 11th grade. He returns each summer from college EXPLORE 1 1 PAR ACHUTE: The umbrella canopy of the parachute suspends the rider in the sky like a kite. TOW ROPE: The umbilical line connects the rider to a speedboat. MICHAEL HAPHE/ CATALINA ISLANDER to lifeguard on the "green pleasure pier." Haphe leans on the pier's railings, squints in the late afternoon sun and thinks about the changing of the seasons, and his change in favorite seasons. "When I was living here," he says, "the summer was my favorite part of the year. T hat's when all the people are here. Now, I like the autumn. I t's a little less fast-paced. Everything is kind of winding down for the winter. I t's q uiet" C HANDLER PARIS/PIONEER Sunlight glints off the waters of Avalon Bay, giving an unique view of Catalina's busiest harbor. CONTROL STRAPS: By pulling on the nylon harness straps, the rider can control aerial movement. iling, an uplifting ride Like a kite floating on the end of a string, you sway lazily in the sky. You become one with the clouds and the wind as your parachute suspends you in mid air. Para-sailing gives the airborne thrill seeker the chance to experience the delights enjoyed by thermal-riding birds and butterflies. For $38 and 8-10 magnificent minutes, visitors to Catalina can fly like a kite above the pristine city of Avalon. Island Cruzers offers the thrill with an emphasis on safety and excitement The concept of para-sailing is remarkably simple; the rider is suspended in the sky by a parachute and is pulled behind a boat with a 300-foot length of rope. Although the sport looks dangerous and difficult, it is surprisingly safe and simple. Even amateur adventurers will find the activity to be easier than riding a bicycle. First the rider is strapped into a relatively nonrestrictive harness. The harness, constructed of nylon straps, fits snugly around the legs and chest. Although it looks frail and without supportive structure, the harness is very strong and gives the rider extensive freedom of movement. A large, colorful parachute flaps behind and a sturdy lifeline connects the para-sailer to the b oat To insure safety and facilitate the launch process, Island Cruzers has installed a hydraulic wench to the lifelines * The wench feeds the rope out from the boat evenly, allowing the para-sailer to launch without touching the water. Air fills the parachute and, as SEEKERS the boat builds speed, the rider is lifted into the sky. Once airborne, the para-sailer sees the world from an uniquely bird-like point of view. The landscape below unfolds like a blossoming flower as the parachute flaps gently in the breeze. The rider settles into a calm pocket of air hundreds of feet above the ocean's water. It is almost as if the world has stopped revolving so the parasailer can settle in and enjoy the view. The most unsettling aspect of the ride comes with the realization that the boat, which is towing the rider and parachute, is only a distant moving speck. The rider becomes acutely aware that the only thing stopping him/her from being swept away into the sky, is the umbilical connecting him to the boat. Even more unsettling is the view straight down, as the rider sees his feet dangling far above the ocean below. The thougnt that the rope could break at any time or the harness might suddenly give way, adds tension and a sense of danger to an otherwise placid flight Once the rider becomes acclimated to the feeling of flying on a tether, the true fun begins with the realization that the parachute can actually be controlled. When the rider tugs on the harness straps behindhis/her head, the parachute responds by actually turning toward the direction of the strap pulled. If the left strap is pulled, for example, the parachute will veer in that direction. By tugging on one side the harness, the para-sail»' releases air from that side of the parachute, causing it to dip in the direction pulled. If the rider pulls both straps simultaneously, the parachute loses altitude. A fun exercise is to pull both straps at the same time until the parachute dips about 50 feet. After dropping, simply release the straps and the parachute will regain its previous altitude almost instantaneously. When the ride nears its end, the boat slows to a crawl and the hydraulic wench reels in the tether. The rider is brought back to the deck of the boat gently and safely without touching even a drop water. Para-sailing is an uplifting experience for thrill seekers of ^ almost any age or sex and should not be passed by. Para-sailing adventures are also offered throughout Mexico, but be prepared to get w et Most places in Mexico that offer para-sailing d on't use a hydraulic wench. So the next time the urge to go fly a kite arises, check out the view from the other end of the string. �12 PIONEER/TUESDAY, OCTOBER 2 ,1990 EXPLORE CATALIN A guide to island tours, activities and restaurants Catalina is an island paradise located just west of America's most populous state.
